Four Color #805
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The New Exhibit," Crusader and Rags pay a visit to the circus where Rags once performed, only to discover it now run by the ruthless animal keeper Whetstone Whiplash and his henchman, the strong man Achilles the Heel, who’ve seized control from the kind-hearted Colonel Truepenny. With Rags imprisoned in his old cage and forced to perform, Crusader dons the guise of a magician to infiltrate the circus and free his friend. Written by Paul S. Newman and illustrated by Dan Gormley—whose dynamic art brings the spectacle to life, from the cover pencils and inks to the interior storytelling—this 1957 Four Color comic delivers a classic tale of courage and disguise in a world where the ring is no longer a stage for joy, but a cage for fear.
When Crusader and Rags stumble through a magic mirror, they’re whisked into the frostbitten halls of Chattering Heights, where they meet the noble Sir Chester Chillblain and his spirited daughter Mary Anne, facing down the mischievous Blaggard Brothers in a tale of courage and cold-weather antics.
In "The Circus Mystery," Jo and Rags stumble upon the once-beloved circus now ruled by the tyrannical animal keeper Whetstone Whiplash, who’s driven out the kind-hearted Colonel Truepenny and turned the big top into a cage of fear. When Whiplash locks Rags in his old cage and forces him to perform, Crusader dons a magician’s disguise to sneak inside and free his friend—before the show ends in disaster.
